Here below some pictures from X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the upcoming spin-off of the X-Men movie series dedicated to Wolverine:(click on a picture to enlarge it)

So in the cast we have Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Liev Schreiber as Sabretooth, Wolverine's Nemesis.The cast is great and the plot is a sure value: the movie 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine shall be great then!:)

I'm a geek too, I grew up reading these comic books. Wolverine was originally pretty short and Sabretooth was a big dude. Also, I have a problem with Gambit being in this movie if he is showing up in the early days of Wolverine. Gambit didn't show up until much later. I like the movies, but being a purist type, I do have issues with how some of the teams were shown. My Xmen issues? Collasas and Angel are part of the original team. For the next Xmen movie? I think they need to bring in Apocalypse and the four horseman. Do the Morlock Massacre storyline. WOOOOO!! That would be cool and brutal.

Colossus was not a part of the original team, he didn't show up until Giant-Size X-men #1 along with Storm, Nightcrawler, Banshee, Wolverine, Sunfire, and Thunderbird.The original X-men were Cyclops, Marvel Girl(Jean Grey), Beast, Iceman, and Angel.

I dont know why you are just now argueing about who the original X-Men were. They messed that up in the third movie by finally adding Beast and Angel. Unless they circle back to correct it by saying they were in X school but eventualy left previous to the first movie. I do like the fact that they went with the story line that Logan always had claws and that they encased them in adamantium to make them even more deadly. That kinda always bothered me about the first movie when Jean Grey said his only power was regeneration. Besides now they can run the story of Magneto stripping it off of the claws when he gets his powers back if they ever decide to make another full X-Men movie again. Why do people keep talking about Logan being abducted by Project Weapon X? He volunteered for the project. I thought they answered that in the second X-Men movie?

the thing that bothers me is the fact that no one really knows what happened to Wolverine before Project-X. Everything before that was added to the character long after he was discovered! to say that he had claws before Project-X is truly unknown. personally if this movie is an add on to the X-Men series, they need to say he got the claws through Project-X. If not then it don't really matter... well, it don't really matter, the movie is going to kick ass anyway!! and i'm glad they are finally putting Gambit in movies, he should have been there in the first X-Men movie!!
